Ebonee Makeup

This spring has felt like rebirth or renewal for me.
Idk about yall but omg, my life has been hectic in the best way 🤯

I’m in the process of moving and I’ll be living solo for the first time 😱 I love my roomies but I’m so ready 😅

I’m also officially a pageant queen representing one of the best cities and so far, I’ve raised over $500 to make beauty & wellness more accessible to Black people & marginalized communities in Portland, Oregon. If you want to offer support & learn more about my platform, please follow me .blackportland

I’m seeking sponsors who’d be willing to donate and/or collaborate with me on this endeavor. For all booking and inquiries, please DM me .blackportland OR email me at [email protected]

Thank you so much for your love and support!

Please share & tag so we can make wellness more accessible to marginalized communities in PDX.

More exciting news is coming soon so be on the lookout for some upcoming announcements!

This is what my experience has been like being back on the dating apps 🫣

- Matched with a potential love scammer
- Matched with a hobosexual
- Matched with a man who I later found out was still married (ongoing divorce) living at home with his wife & kids
- An overwhelming number of indecisive men who do not know what they want on a dating app
- Some who refuse to divulge basic information about themselves such as their NAME, what they do for a living, etc.
- Men posting gross or graphic photos that nobody wants to see (ex: injuries)
- Dudes altering their images with AI
- Quite a bit of conservative men under the guise of being “not political”

This doesn’t include creepy men, being ghosted and everything else.

Like are y’all, ok?

I think it might be time for me to take another break from the apps ✌🏾

Single Ladies, if you’re on dating apps like Hinge, please share your experience in the comments.

A question for single men who are actively dating…what happened to yearning?

To romance?

Like some many of y’all done lost the plot.

Men that I’ve encountered in today’s dating scene won’t even open the door for a lady. Won’t pay for the meal. Men who don’t know how, or even care, to reciprocate in good conversation. And yet so many of y’all have the AUDACITY to expect women to go home with you?!

WILD behavior.

Myself and so many other women today are going on solo dates and/or out with our girls living our BEST lives without you and it’s a shame because we want to include y’all but the way we’ve been treated, it is that bad.

I miss when men in R&B music videos sang in the rain. Pleaded for their girl to come back to them.
Praised their partner who chose to love them.
Like I want the 90s love I was promised 😩

Women just want to be treated well and be free to live like the Queens that we are which in turn will benefit their partner, family and community.

Is that asking for too much?
